Paula Lane is set to join the cast of Emmerdale in a new role, playing the character of Ella Forster. Fans of the ITV soap may recognise Paula from her time on Coronation Street, playing the feisty Kylie Platt who tragically died in husband David’s arms in 2016.
Ella is described as a caring and compassionate character who is set to fall on difficult times. She meets Mandy Dingle at a Veterinary Ball, which she is attending with partner Paddy Kirk, and subsequently ends up losing her job after sticking up for the salon owner.
Paula herself is delighted to be joining the cast of Emmerdale, saying “I’m so excited to be joining the cast of Emmerdale. Everyone has been so welcoming and I can’t wait to start a new chapter playing the role of Ella. I’ve already heard there are big plans for her and I can’t wait to see her navigate a new life in the village and hopefully make some friends!”
Producer Kate Brooks was equally as enthusiastic about the new addition to the cast, as she teased more about what viewers can expect from Ella. She said “Ella is a complex and multi-layered character who comes to the village and certainly makes an impact. Ostensibly she’s a good, moral character, but is there more to her than meets the eye? We are absolutely thrilled to welcome an actor of Paula’s calibre to the show and we can’t wait to have her light up our screens.”
Paula will begin filming this month and Ella is set to hit our screens in January. We can’t wait to see what’s in store for her character and to see how Paula’s presence in the village will shape the soap.
